Summary
Oh how sweet and innocent we were when we recorded this ep one whole week before Election Day! Oh to be doubled up on Zoloft on this day!
When we recorded this episode, we envisioned a world where it might be possible to ever feel comfortable and cozy again. That’s why we brought you our annual Cozy Recs, complete with eggnog (or milk-based alternatives), oversized hoodies, and the famous cozy game you know and love: SMDDRFFAD! Does that help?? Is coziness possible? In any event, we hope you enjoy the only show on air brave enough to encourage you to replace all your blood with the sand of a weighted blanket. We’re going to need a lot of sand.
On a serious note, we’re a little scared. We hope this podcast can continue to be a light for you as our world darkens. We’ll keep fighting alongside you for a better world, for us and for our communities, because we have to. We love you.
STUFF TO CHECK OUT:
- Meagan’s cozy feminist hoodie rec!
- Samin Nosrat’s buttermilk-marinated roast chicken recipe
